Talk of the day

National Museum is all set to organise its sixth lecture. The talk will focus on the topic ‘Indian Museum - becoming more relevant’. Museum professional Vinod Daniel will be delivering the lecture. 

The talk will highlight on how museums internationally are better connecting their collections to communities, addressing contemporary issues, better managing their collections and having more effective audience engagement. It will also deal with some of the broader challenges that museums internationally face and the measures that are being taken to make them more sustainable.
